With no oak at all, this is the vin de soif of Claret! Full of bright plummy fruit, gentle tannins - enough grip to see your way through a Cassoulet.
Producer
Arnauld Cassini is one of the few producers leading a revolution. A revolution against the intervention heavy winemaking which has plagued one of the world's finest terroirs. With close friends Catherine and Pierre Breton, and taking inspiration from Didier Dagueaneau he is working a hands off approach on his vines, not even using any oak.
Farming & Winemaking
Arnauld describes himself as a natural winemaker - no filtering and nothing added at all. Working towards his biodynamic certification he has practised this for many years.
100% Merlot from a 3.9 hectare single plot, farm certified organically. 3 week fermentation elevage in cement tanks for 22 months.
Bottled unfined and unfiltered. Sinimal SO2 added before bottling.
